THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 23, 2024 Page 17 OBITUARIES Elena Cacciola K nown as Helen by everyone who loved her, passed away on August 18, 2024. She was, quite simply, the best person the universe ever created. Helen was born on December 2, 1931 in Boston to her late parents Domenic Canto and Sabina (Gisi). Throughout her life she loved everyone and wanted nothing more than for everyone to get along. She took care of others selflessly and gave more than anyone could have ever given her in return. Though she spent more of her life in Everett, she was always and forever a proud Italian who called the North End home. She was the best wife, daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother anyone ever could have hoped for. She is preceded in death by her adoring and devoted husband Biagio, her cherished son Joseph, her loving siblings, her brothers Peter, Edward, Domenic, Guy, Anthony, and her sister Mary (DiTomasio), and her beloved granddaughter Kayla, all of whom we know are rejoicing to have her join them in eternal rest. She is survived, as best as they can without the very pillar of their lives, by her daughter Lucille Cacciola Keefe and her husband Patrick, her daughter Elena Walsh, six grandchildren, and seven great grandchildren.
